  • the thickness of received hose film is about 0,050 mm, that is satisfactory only for machine filUng; permeabiUty for water is in a range 12-28 g/M 3 in a day, and permeabiUty for oxygen is about 15 up to 30 cm 3 / 2 day bar.
  • This film is manufactured as foUows: the components are mixed, plasticized at 260° C and moulded, preferable by extrusion of a sleeve with blowing. Then biaxial stretching with multipUcity of the lengthways and across stretching in a range from 1:1,5 up to 1:4 is carried out. Then the sleeve is thermofixed for stabilization of the sizes.
  • the closest known technical decision to the claimed one is a hose film on a basis of polyamides, used in manufacture of paste Uke and viscous food products (sausage coat), including polyamide 6, aUphatic copolyamide, aromatic polyamide, containing hexamethylenediamine and terephtaUc acid units, and copolymer including olefin units (EP, Al, 0722664).
  • This hose film contains (weight. %): a) polyamide 6 b) aUphatic polyamide (5-50 % of general weight of aU polymers in a layer)
  • aUphatic copolyamide is used the copolyamide with units of ⁇ -caprolactam, of hexamethylenediamine and of azelaic acid (polyamide 6/6,9) and/or polyamide 6,12 as copolyamide from hexamethylenediamine and dodecanic acid,
  • the hose film may involve dyes and/or pigments in few amounts.
  • the manufacturing of monolayer and multilayer sausage coat includes mixturing and melting at the temperature about 240° C of components of the mixture in special extruder until producing of a homogeneous melted mixture, extrusion of the latter through ring injectors with blowing, moulding of an integral sleeve, which stretched then in longitudinal and cross directions under air pressure. A received film is fixed by additional heat treatment.
  • the hose film received according to the known technology gives shrinkage from 5 up to 25 % (at 80° C) in share and cross directions, it has thickness of 0,033-0,056 mm, can be manufactured as multilayer.
  • Water permeabiUty of the sausage coat changes from 11,5 up to 13, 1 g/m a day, and oxygen permeabiUty varies from 13,6 up to 18,5 cm 3 /m 2 day bar.
  • Multilayer hose film contains as a minimum one layer of the mentioned above polyamide mixture.
  • Other layers consist mainly from polyamides (for example, polyamide 6), polyamide mixtures, polyolei ⁇ ns (for example, polyethylene or polypropylene), also from polyolefins, containing binding functional groups.
  • the layers can be manufactured from copolymers with units of ethylenenonsaturated monomers (for example, vinylacetate, vinyl alcohol, acryUc and methacryUc acid), and also of vinyUdenchloride or acrylonitrile copolymers, of ionomer resins or of mixtures of above named polymers.
  • a coat usually consists of 3- 5 layers. Such coat may be manufactured by coextrusion through ring injectors, which are speciaUy designed according to quantity of layers. Multilayer coats being compared with monolayer show higher water and vapour permeabiUty and permeabiUty for oxygen.
  • the problem to be solved by the invention consists in creation of a hose film to be used in manufacture of paste Uke and viscous food products, having lower water and vapour permeabiUty and permeabiUty for oxygen, and also having increased strength characteristics under heat treatment.
  • the problem is solved by the claimed invention.
  • Aromatic polyamide containing hexamethylenediamine and terephthaUc acid units 3-7
  • Ionomer resin 3-6 Mixture of graft copolymers on the basis of derivatives of carboxyUc and polycarboxyUc acids 0 1-5
  • the hose film may contain zinc salt of copolymer of ethylenemethacryUc acid as ionomer resin.
  • the copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylendiamine and of adipic acid may be used (polyamide 6/6,6 with elements of the formulas -N-(CH 2 ) 5 -CO-, -N-(CH 2 ) 6 -NH-, -CO-(CH 2 ) 4 -
  • the hose film may contain as a mixture of graft copolymers on the basis of derivatives of carboxyUc and polycarboxyUc acids the mixture with the contents of graft units from 0,3 up to 0,9 weight %
  • the hose film may be carried out as multilayer, and at least one layer has the foUowing composition: (weight parts):
  • hose film can contain if necessary, additional dyes, pigments and/or auxiUary substances of processing. The share of these components rather smaU, so the basic characteristics of the film remain constant. Below the components of the hose film are designated as foUows:
  • graft copolymers for example, acrylic polymer with graft units of maleic anhydride, Unear polyethylene of low density with graft units of maleic anhydride and ethylenepropylene rubber with graft groups of maleic anhydride are used.
  • the properties are reached which have not both separate components of the film and known structures of hose films, namely: higher water and vapour permeabiUty and permeabiUty for oxygen, and besides, the film is thermostable up to 125° C and is not subjected to breaks at thermal processing (cooking).
  • Components 1-5 in the above specified quantities are carefully mixed and loaded into the bunker of an extruder where the mixture of granules is homogenized at 255° C up to receiving of homogeneous melt.
  • the melt is submited on the ring head of extruder, on passage through which a primary sleeve is produced. Leaving from the extruder a primary sleeve is sharply cooled and then is heated up for plastification. Then it undergo to biaxial stretching which is carried out by compressed air. Then the moulded sleeve is directed to the furnace for thermofixation where there is the process of its stabilization. Then a sleeve is cooled, then it is submitted on the receiver, where it is reeled up on a fiber drum in a combined form.

Mixture 1; 1) 80 weight parts of usual granulated polycaprolactam (polyamide 6) (as in the example 1) 2) 10 weight parts of copolymer of polycaprolactam and of polyhexamethylenediamine and of adipic acid (polyamide 6/6,6) (according to example 1)
  • the mixture III is prepared similarly to mixture 1.
  • Mixtures 1, II, III are plasticizated in three single-screw extruders at 240°C until producing of homogeneous alloys, then they are fed to 3-layer ring injectors and are coextruded in a sleeve.
  • the sleeve is processed in oriented in two axis and thermofixed hose film.
  • the hose film produced according to the invention meets the requirements, necessary for use, in particular in manufacture of cooked sausages and of processed cheeses.
  • the thickness of a film for machine filUng of sausage forcemeat is 0,037-0,040 mm, for hand-operated filUng it is 0,030-0,033 mm.
  • the hose film remains rather strong, also at high temperatures about up to 125°C it has large elasticity and it is soft to the touch, adjoins to contents even after complete cooUng, wiU not practicaUy lead to precipitation of jeUy and of fat between sausage forcemeat and coat; its durabiUty at filUng and accuracy of caUbre of sausages, made in such environments, does not decrease. There is no adhesion of food products to the hose film.
  • Distinctive feature of invented hose film is its low water- vapor- and oxygen permeabiUty, that defines a high degree of safety of a ready product (abihty to oxidize and loss of weight), and also it thermostabiUty.
